PipelineRuns Cleanups #

There can be many PipelineRuns in a user namespace and Pipelines-as-Code has the ability to keep only a certain number of PipelineRuns and clean up the old ones.

When your PipelineRun has this annotation :

pipelinesascode.tekton.dev/max-keep-runs: "maxNumber"

Pipelines-as-Code sees this and will start cleaning up right after one of the PipelineRuns finishes successfully, keeping only the last maxNumber of PipelineRuns.

It will skip the Running or Pending PipelineRuns but will not skip the PipelineRuns with Unknown status.

The setting can also be configured globally for a cluster via the pipelines-as-code ConfigMap
